Churches are Closing and the Icons are Being Removed



Whether or not you believe in having crosses as symbols is irrelevant to this post. What is relevant is that wicked unbelievers want to remove any semblance of Christianity from America.

The only reason they can get away with this is that the general population is engaged in cultural Christianity, they have little concern about the Bible. God is allowing this to happen to show how demented this country has become.

Believers need to unite in prayer rather than fighting the government. Born again believers have no need of a cross to walk with Christ. However, the fact that the unbelieving population does not want to see anything associated with God is a clue about the depravity of the nation as a whole.

Perhaps God is removing all the symbols because they are meaningless to make people righteous. It is Christ making people new creations that is meaningful and joyous.

Perhaps too, God is removing all the "comforting" sights that make people feel safe to remind the lukewarm church that there is nothing and no one they can depend upon other than Christ.

We are a culture of make-believe, we love our fantasies. To see a cross makes us feel things, but it is only trusting in Christ that makes us saved and confidently steady.

Those who are authentically born again will need no symbols to love Christ, to grow in holiness, to have a great sense of joy every day, and go up when the rapture occurs.

Those who will be shaken the most by the removal of the symbols and the closing of churches are those who have depended on their traditions to give them a sense of safety and security.

May those who love the Lord remember that they can worship anywhere at any time without a building, they can pray at any time or any place, their worship and their prayer does not depend on rituals or icons made by man.

All worship and prayer is dependent solely and completely on the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
